Well, cory123, although I'm probably not a member of this 'team' you speak of, whenever a prospective student needs to know which schools are the top in a particular area, giving them information is not a particularly horrendous deed. Especially as Chicago is constantly overlooked on prestige-based CC.
ye I understand where you're coming from. It just annoys me when I see people treat Uchicago as this poor university which needs to be saved by incoming freshman who find the need to constantly boast to compensate for its so-called "underrated" reputation. It doesn't need saving. Either that, or I get the feeling incoming freshman, especially, find the need to feel adaquete in comparison to kids who got into similarly ranked schools that have more prestige..schools like Columbia or Duke or Upenn. I guess that's a natural feeling to have, but I say we should just be proud of Uchicago and forget about proving ourselves to people who neglect or underrate it.
